The Calm Before The iPhone Storm

Just a few days before Apple iPhone is going on sale, people just can’t stop talking about it. Many tech podcasts talk about, bash, drool at, etc. the iPhone.

Let’s see what’s happening this Friday, June the 29th, 2007.

Ratatouille
The latest movie from Pixar and Disney. Featuring the voice of Patton Oswalt. Oswalt is no stranger to animated movies and TV show. As a matter of fact, Oswalt is a regular on Reno 911!, both the TV series and the Movie.

OK, I got lazy here. I’ll update this post a bit later.

Leo Laporte’s Radio Show Chat Room New Slogan: “Buy an iPhone”

It was pretty fun today at Leo Laporte’s Radio Show Chat Room. For the last 90 minutes of the show, people in the chat room kept typing “Buy an iPhone” as the solutions to any problems.

  • Windows failed Genuine (dis)Advantage test? Get an iPhone, problem is solved.
  • Having trouble burning CD/DVD? Buy an iPhone, it will burn the discs for you.
  • Apple Mail not sending in Rich Text Format? iPhone will send all your emails in Rich Text Format.

Close to the end of the show, Leo actually repeated what the people in the chat room were saying. “Get an iPhone”.

Anyway, catch it on Show 364 podcast.

Walking Across America to Raise Money for American Diabetes Association

I talked to Jeremy Keeble about his effort to raise money for American Diabetes Association by walking across America. Jeremy took an absence of leave from his job for one year and started the journey in October 2006. His goal is to raise $100,000.00 in donations.

I will be posting series of videos of Jeremy on and off the hiking trails in the near future.

For more information, please check: http://www.diabetes.org/jeremykeeble/

I’ll be posting the links to the video here and at http://37prime.com/podcast/

Thank You for your support.
